Thanks D

It take it you googled the meaning??

Its pronounce like this.

Lagn - lon (like don with a l)

iappe - yop (like mop with a y (emphasis on the y))

lon-yop



Its a Cajun slang word for a lil extra

Up here in north LA, we pronounce it lan-yap. Still means the same.

And for those that don't know, Yankees and "north LA" refers to anyone that comes from or lives north of the I-10/I-12 Corridor. Come to think of it, maybe that's why we didn't fit in when we briefly lived in Thibodaux.

Well heck, Im a little bored today, looks like it wants to rain.

Gonna head home this weekend and pull the stacks off of my mega (gasp!)

Decided to put a aux tank tool box combo for the time being. Ill be able to carry 80 gals of diesel now. Got a gravity feed kit coming from northern to hook it all up too.

Itll be different having such a quiet ride now...

Well. Im kinda enjoying going stackless. Its so quiet in my truck. Actually peaceful. I even found that theres a radio in there, and it plays too! Music!

May keep em off.

I just figured Id better post this here cause the 3rd gen guys would persecute me if I admitted I was enjoying sans stacks...
